Wound Drainage Types 🩹❤️‍🩹

🤍 Serous: Clear, watery discharge

❤️ Sanguineous: Bloody discharge

🩷 Serosanguineous: Blood + water

💚 Purulent: Infected discharge

👉 What is serous drainage? It is PLASMA without proteins. Plasma is the liquid part of your blood.

⚠️ NCLEX Tip: Diabetic patients should be monitored regularly for pressure sores and wounds due to peripheral neuropathy and slowed wound healing.

Happy Studying! XO Nurse Amanda ❤️
